NeoEyes NE101 Sensing Camera

Overview

Event-Triggered. Battery-Efficient. Built for Vision AI Prototyping.

The CamThink NeoEyes NE101 is a developer-focused, battery-operated camera designed for ultra-low power image capture based on trigger events. With a fully modular structure, swappable components, and open-source firmware, NE101 enables fast and flexible deployment in outdoor and energy-constrained scenarios.

Ideal for wildlife monitoring, smart agriculture, and embedded vision use cases.

  Key Features

• Ultra-Low Power Consumption
  Supports up to 3+ years on AA batteries (10 photos/day). Also supports Type-C 5V power via onboard port (not externally exposed).

• Event-Triggered Capture
  Supports PIR, radar, or sound triggers to wake and capture only when needed.

• Modular Design
  Swap or upgrade camera, communication and power modules, and housing components with ease.

• Open Hardware & Firmware
  Includes open-source firmware and fully documented GPIO / interface specs for custom development.

• Flexible Communication
  Default Wi-Fi. Optional Cat-1 (LTE) and Wi-Fi HaLow modules available — see options

• IP67 Protection
  Built to withstand outdoor deployment in tough environments.

Modular Communication Options

Communication modules plug into the front onboard socket. Driver-free, easy swap.
